Dr. Miller is one of the very best Dr’s I have ever experienced. He has excellent bed side manners, truly compassionate and ensures his patients understand everything they will be going through. He listens intently and takes the necessary time with his patients. He performed my most recent surgery and I’m confident I was in great hands. Highly recommend him.

I recently visited Dr Miller to discuss a Sciatica Nerve issue. After an attempt to eliminate the pain, w/a steroid back injection, I had minimal pain relief. Dr Miller suggested a Laminectomy/Spinal Decompression. I agreed to the surgery. The BEST decision I've ever made. Dr Miller called me, at home over the weekend, to check on my recovery process. After Physical Therapy I no longer suffer from the Sciatica Pain. It's gone! Thank you Dr Miller.

Second time my problem was accurately diagnosed and my nerve pain completely relieved. I was kept informed through the entire process. Personal followup phone call, evaluating pain, possible infection or blood clots. One of the most thourough processes I have experienced as an RN and also a patient with history of multiple serious surgeries.

I want to let people know that Dr. Justin Miller is a wonderful doctor . I had surgery Feb 2026 and not only did he help to relieve pain i had for 5 years, he check on my recovery on weekends. He has the best staff as well . They are all willing to put in the extra effort when you have questions or an issue. Dr. MILLER took time out of his busy schedule when i had an infection to help me get back on track do a debri of the area and put with an infectious disease doctor to get a handle on the infection . I was very blessed to find this group of medical professionals..Its now June 2026 and i can ride a stationary bike .

I’m hoping to share my story in case it helps! I was suffering debilitating sciatica, I showed up in their office unable to even sit in a chair. I was suffering with incredible pain that was progressing quickly. On the verge of tears, I shared my problems, and Dr. Miller listened so emphatically. I was fortunate to quickly qualify for a lumbar decompression surgery, and was very well informed and prepared on how recovery would feel. My experience in pre op and post op at the Indiana Spine Hosital was so personal, professional, and detailed. I felt very well cared for and personally noticed. Dr.Miller and his team were so great at communicating before and after surgery. My incision is so clean and healing incredibly well. I didn’t need any pain medication after one week post op and still don’t. Very grateful that I can now sit and drive, as I was completely debilitated before. This was life changing for me in every way. I feel like a new person. Thank you for serving in this capacity, Dr. , I can imagine you are so busy, and I want to thank you for the time you took to help me because I am truly eternally grateful. 🥲

Dr. Miller did a great job on my surgery. When I returned due to other pain he said he'd rather I tried non-surgery methods and that he would rather not do any more except as a last restort. He sent me to Dr. Arbuckle who did a lumbar facet rizotomy which helped a lot. I just had my second treatment and my back hasn't been this free of pain in several years. Thanks for Dr. Miller for his no more surgeries approach if other methods work.

Dr. Miller has done four of my five spinal surgeries and I wouldn’t let anyone else do my surgeries but him. I call him my gentle giant. He is so kind and caring about his patients but he’s also not afraid to talk to you about his concerns as well. He explains things so that you understand exactly what he needs to do and what to expect during the surgery and after as well. He is just the best in my book and I have recommended him to many. Five stars in my book for sure.
